Within the Bibliography list, there are a number of published materials which are indicated by bold/italics abreviations. These references are given in more detail here. While a large amount of genealogy material is published privately, many of the best libraries have copies of it in addition to the commercially published material. The author has found a wealth of such information in libraries such as the Library of Congress, the New York Public Library, the University of Georgia Library, the University of Tennessee Library, etc. To facilitate access, I have annotated some of the entries in this bibliography with locations where the material might be found, call numbers are given and some notes on their content.

Still it is difficult to get access to some of the less well circulated material. It would be useful to know more about these works before attempting to travel to find them or have them sent for interlibrary loan. For this reason, we have tried to index some of these books and pamplets for their mentions of the Wampler and Wampfler surnames. This list of indices is also given below.
